Trump has faced the wrath of journalists, reporters, and social media users over his remarks.’ In fact, he even got a name as an “enemy of progress” This year in February on the seventeen had an issue with the American media where he told them to change their attitude and articulate problems affecting the people of the United States.

On his Twitter handle, most of the tweets are negative and had an attack primarily on with the North Koreans when they tied to show their might using The nuclear missiles. While at the oceanfront estate he accused the media as fake merely because they negatively portrayed his action and leadership in the running of the US economy.

In fact, in reply to a follower, he told one black man, “you can follow you black President wherever he is” This is about the former US who was a black. There was an outburst among his Twitter followers of which most of them condemned him for being a blatant racist. The resignation of a nominee in his the government was a clear indication of the extent to which some of his leadership skills have on the public servants.

Something uncommon with the media, they took to their platforms to condemn some of his weird actions. In his defense, he just said that the media blow simple things out of proportion to serve their masters. People now ask, which are our masters, do they now expect him to do wrong things and the media keeps quiet about them?

Online users took to the social networks to applaud the media for their unbiased reports. The press is supposed to be independent and say things as they are with no addition or subtraction to fulfill a political agenda.

Trump also came in to accuse the same media that they gain mileage by spreading malice. Of course, that is not the case, all he does is just to try and become relevant to substantiate some of his actions which have received negative publicity.

This was the time when Trump was seen to be emotional when giving a state of the nation address about his remarks. It was the news coming from Washington DC in a bid for the great president to show his might in a smart way of gaining control over the media. In his speech, he never spares the bloggers some online magazines and intelligence personnel who he accused of being behind leakage of some crucial information to the media

Trump said, how could these people have access to such top-level secret.”
This is one President who is very active on Twitter and does not hesitate to publicly burst anyone who stands in his way or does not support his ideologies.

This is the day Trump came face to face with the wrath of mainstream media as well as online users. Although this is not a surprise, Trump, right from the campaign rallies, he had an arrogant attitude, and he never minced his words when he attacked his primary opponent, Hillary Clinton.

The President of the United State of America- Barack Obama is among renowned people who have a soft spot for Table tennis. The International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) governs all table tennis sporting activities at the international level. Competitive table tennis is popular in Asian countries, Europe, and the United States. Among the greatest ping pong players are a South Korean player, Yoo Nam-Kyu, Chinese female player Chen Jing, male Chinese player Wang Liqin and Chinese player Guo Yue. Ping pong has become a popular sport which has in turn resulted to a new celebrity craze coming to England. The number of ping pong bars has significantly increased.

President Obama is one of the famous people who play ping pong, with the likes of David Cameron, Justin Bieber, Kim Kardashian, Stanley Kubrick, James Mason, the late Bob Marley, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Fidel Castro and much more. Michelle Obama, his wife also participated in table tennis during a visit to a state-run school in Beijing, china.

Barrack Obama once collaborated with David Cameron against a pair of teenagers in a Ping pong tournament in May 2011. What amazed people is, that both of them are left-handed as this is a rare scene in high-level tennis with making sure to get the best one of the best ping pong equipment (http://www.thepingpongguys.com). The two were playing against two sixteen-year-olds but the teenagers ended up winning! David Cameron gifted the president with a tennis table that was manufactured in China during his Washington D.C visit. This was to serve as a reminder of the time they played ping pong with pupils in South London.

During his European tour, president Obama made a point of playing table tennis with British pupils. The tour was purposed to strengthen the ties between the United States and England. While at it, the president and his wife dined with Queen Elizabeth 11 and met the newlyweds, Kate Middleton and Prince William. This is a political forum to reward loyal supporters and friends. The government of Britain is the main organizers of all the state meetings.

Obama met David Cameron, Britain’s prime minister, for a security concern high-level meeting with a counterpart from the Arab spring, Afghanistan, and counterterrorism. It is after this agenda that they decided to visit a local school, Globe Academy where they played ping pong with the kids. They took the risk of being photographed while playing the game as it is usually a situation that politicians do not win. One of the kids gave feedback about the president being nice as he engaged him in a friendly conversation after the match.

The president engaging in a sport is not a new thing as many celebrities in a way or the other partake of certain sports while on tour or public events. Apart from ping pong, Obama is also a basketball fanatic who had been shown playing pickup games during his campaign. After his inauguration, he hosted a super bowl party to win the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. Other famous people like tom cruise, Steve carrel, George Clooney, Jamie Foxx and Brad Pitt have also engaged in sports at some point.

As part of the International Women’s Day celebrations, Michelle Obama, the First Lady of the United States, decided to join a famous graffiti artist in spray painting a wall in Washington D.C. The act was a way of honoring her Let Girls learn Movement for adolescent girls. By doing this, Michelle Obama raised a lot of controversy as most people claimed she was revealing the ghetto in her. This is because most of the time street graffiti is considered illegal and those who did not like the idea called this a ‘classless’ act.

Mr. Brainwash, the graffiti artist behind the event combined it with the White House. This got Michelle Obama showing interest in taking part by leaving hearts to the wall by a can of spray paint, together with her signature. They should have known the knowing the difference of benchtop and floor drill press brands since they used it too. The program for Let Girls Learn aims at helping 62 million girls across the globe acquire education. The event was marking a one-year anniversary of the initiative. Training is also provided for Peace Corps volunteers. Michelle Obama therefore decided to leave a permanent mark on the street in honor of the initiative.

As part of the event, Michelle Obama welcomed adolescent girls from “Girl Up” for a motivational trip dubbed “The Girls’ Lounge Let Girls Learn bus on the South Lawn of the White House”. She gave a speech concerning the importance of education amongst girls all over the world. She also saw solidarity for total involvement of the private sector industry. Samantha Power- The U.S Ambassador to the United Nations was also present to grace the occasion whose main objective was “women empowerment”. It is after her remarks that she viewed Mr. Brainwash’s murals and made her contribution of hearts. Spray painting of the murals was done live during the event in honor of the 62 million girls that do not have access to education.

Graffiti has for a long time been considered a ghetto activity as most of these writings are found in ghetto communities where there are high crime rates. Even though people use graffiti to express social or political messages, it has brought about a lot of controversies and those who engage in the activity sometimes find themselves in trouble with the law enforcement, city officials and those writers who have an aim to display and appreciate work in public locations. In relation to Michelle Obama, her involvement in graffiti work left many in shock.

The graffiti artist from Los Angeles, Mr. Brainwash, was however impressed by Michelle Obama’s participation by calling her ‘real and gifted’. A large number of people also turned out for the big thing. Critics of her act claim that as the First Lady, she was setting a bad example. For instance, one of those is quoted anonymously “I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait until we have a president with a spine and a first lady with some form of class again. America is sick of this”. In her defense, some agree that it was just a way of appreciating art while empowering girls and women.

When Bill Clinton first took the presidency, before his swearing-in ceremony, Hillary Clinton the first lady to be was interviewed by the New York Times, and he noted as the first thing President Bill Clinton should work on was his love for fatty foods. She further admitted her love for chocolate, which was her husband’s worst meal. This almost took their marriage to rocks. During the interview, she, at one point admitted that he added more than 20 pounds in a short span and it really affected his weight. She had to encourage him to eat right and watch the quantities. The results were amazing.

The introduction of gas burning smoker is the ideal change in ensuring the President check on his diet and watch on his weight- maintain or reduce it. The gas burning smokers(www.seriouslysmoked.com/traeger-vs-green-mountain-grills-review) prepare food using a smoking method. It maintains the flavor of the food and does not need any extra fat in preparation like frying. There is no contact of food with the low temperatures from the gas smokers. This reduces the number of chemicals added to foods to prepare it.

No addition of chemicals

Instead of using oil, water as a liquid is ideal for maintaining its nutritive value, and for it to cook longer. There is surely the President eats clean and healthy meals.

Cheap

Like the Electric Smoker it is affordable and preparation is simple- a burger love may not want longer hours in food preparation.

Free from Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH)

Smoked food is free from PAH which is linked to cancer cells- a global menace for all races and ages. Some of additives and preservatives are linked to these chemicals. Smoking as a cooking method is also a preservative. If President Clinton opts for the smokers, he is sure of consuming fresh food with no chemicals or preservatives ideal for his health considering his age. Recent research by The Environment Protection Agency proves that the chemical is one of the major causes of premature aging. We would love to see the former President jovial to offer advice to the incumbent and future presidents of the United States of America. It is also the joy of the wife Hillary Clinton.

Easier and faster in operation

Unlike traditional smokers which are cumbersome to use, the gas smoker is simple with all instructions to accompany the manual for a quick fix meat bite instead of a burger from his favorite food fries store to get his favorite burger.

Balanced diet

The smoked meal can incorporate a balanced diet recommended for human consumption. Once the meal is smoked, the vegetables are added as a sandwich, the fact that they are not exposed to heat, the nutritive value is maintained.

The health benefits the gas-burning smokers has to offer the former President is awesome. It brings a complete change in diet, which means he can maintain or reduce weight because of eating clean and healthy diet. This will be the joy of Hillary Clinton- the President’s wife.

The onset of his entrepreneurship

The average lifestyle was the first drive towards entrepreneurship. He sold CDs in school- John F. Kennedy high school because he saw the cousin make money but it did not yield much.

President Obama’s love for dogs was first in the public limelight when he promised his two daughters Sasha and Malia a pet dog once he won the elections. Indeed, it happened. The journey towards getting the dog began and landed in Bo. Bo- the white house dog has been a companion more to the first family but more so to the wife Michelle Obama more than the daughters.

Bo appears in various public forums and many frequent visitors of the white house have had a chance to see and watch it play and run around his master. Michelle admits it is the first son of the family. He occupies Obama’s space in bed when he is away. Although it was meant for the daughters, it has found comfort in the first lady.

Barrack Obama in his victory speech for the second term and subsequent speeches had adversely mentioned Bo; a clear indication of the love for the dog

Bo’s lifestyle

You offer extra care for something you love. Bo visits the top dog salons for hair treatments and beautification accompanied by the white house groundsman support staff. He even takes a holiday to the best destinations to interact with other dogs. A key one in the public domain is the standing ovation it received holiday makers with their dogs at Martha’s vineyard. The pet has visited Hawaii among other holiday destinations. Bo’s food is definitely the best. Bo, Obama’s pet dog will surely love pineapple. Can the dog eat and be with Obama? Of course, Bo is part of Obama’s family. The president is a busy guy but he will never forget to have a quality time with Bo.

His birthday

The pet celebrates his birthday on October 9 of every year, his fourth birthday was in the public limelight through a YouTube video which went viral. The pet originates from the Portuguese water dogs as a gift from a couple whose husband is a senator. It was brought to white house when it was six months old. There has been pressure from the Portuguese water dogs to acquire a new one but the first family is comfortable with Bo.

Legend

There are several books written about the dog, which has given the dog brand demand for their dogs, which costs between $1500-$3000 depending on age and size. “Which puppy and the first pub” are among the famous books written about the dog. We cannot forget to mention cover pages of magazines, which has featured the first pet. During the first term, Bo got the opportunity to dine with the high and mighty, which he is used to. White house visitors admit the discipline Bo has even in taking instructions. It cannot jump on the sofa without permission. What a pet! Dogs better be at home than in a street!

The first couple takes turns to walk the pet around the white house yard. Michele walks it early morning while the president walks it in the evening after daily work.

Despite the busy schedule the POTUS has, he has time to talk and play with Bo, a clear sign of the love for Bo and pets in general. Bo- the mama’s boy as it is popularly referred to by the white house staff, the first lady admits it is her first son now that he has daughters.

Government workers are drastically overpaid in the eyes of many in the United States, but do they really know exactly how much some federal employees are earning? If they did, would this perception become better or worse?

Perhaps if the actual figures of top government officials were known by those exact people, the outlook of federal workers would be tainted even more than it already is at this point.

Well, now there’s an updated, decent sample size across the board and the actual amounts won’t install any change of heart to those who view those very employees as pocketing far too much money.

Last year, thousands of government workers pulled in an astronomical six-figures, many of whom worked for agencies that were caught up in scandals and don’t exactly hold the trust of the American people.

Using a partial database of federal salary data, National Journal found there were at least 17,000 federal employees who earned more than $200,000 in 2014. Additionally, 1,600 federal employees took home over $300,000 in base salary. Two workers, Veterans Affairs doctors in Pittsburgh, Pa. and Palo Alto, Calif., pulled in more than $400,000.

Most of the high earners worked as medical officers at the Veterans Affairs Department. Other agencies that require a highly specialized workforce paid several employees at least $200,000; these included the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and the Securities and Exchange Commission, writes the National Journal.

One catch is that the data did not include bonus pay. This alone is enough to increase the figures of the most highly-paid at the scandal-plagued VA. Despite the phony wait lists for veteran care combined with the tragic deaths, millions of dollars were given out to officials who oversaw many of the hospitals.

To put this figure into greater perspective, the median household income in America stood at $51,017 in 2012, which was a slight reduction from $51,100 in 2011. That’s a significant gap between those 17,000 federal employees pumping 200 grand into their bank accounts and the median household income in the United States.

In early December, the AP ran a story speaking of how the State Department refuses to release records of Hillary Clinton during her tenure as Secretary of State — one FOIA request submitted even dated back four years.

Now, with information surfacing of how Clinton used a non-governmental email address while serving as Secretary of State which many experts say could very well have broken transparency rules its important to step back and look how this adds up to what she promised in the past on that exact front.
